Who is Big Ced? Someone that is always smiling! Someone that is always trying to make sure that he looks out for you. Someone that does not ask of much in return. And someone that knows people. Big Ced is an amazing and accomplished journalist and networker. Big Ced is a veteran and if you do not know him… Stop asking who is Big Ced and get to know him.

BIG CED is an industry professional with a magnanimous personality and a smile to match. For almost twenty years, I have relied on BIG CED to enlighten his networks about my clients and good deeds and he has never once closed his door or acted like he didn’t care, and for that I am eternally grateful. Through his career transitions and evolutions, BIG CED has remained humble and authentic and ALWAYS reachable. In the media landscape it’s common to lose touch with people but through my different career moves, BIG CED has always been just a phone call away. Cheers to BIG CED and may everything he touches be as sincere as he is.

Big Ced is an enigma within the Hip Hop culture! As soon as you think you’ve got him figured out…you find out you don’t! His truthful and blunt personality is not a persona…it’s the real deal Holyfield! So, if you can’t hang with honesty or if you don’t understand why people jump up around him shouting “facts only!”…then you probably need to stay out of the way! Because Ced pulls no punches and takes zero prisoners. Which is why he is one of my favorite people in this community! He doesn’t deal in phony…and I appreciate him for that! If he says it…then it is so…period!

When I think of Big Ced, what comes to mind is a well respected industry vet who has worked at huge media publications such as Black Enterprise, Vibe and The Source to name a few. A passionate and dedicated journalist who is an innovator that created a platform of his own, his website, The Industry Cosign, which he has held down for over 12 years. I am privileged and blessed to know him and I am inspired and motivated by him.

‘Big Ced is a very intelligent and enterprising brother who is also very accommodating. There has rarely been a time where Ced hasn’t answered the call.’

#Positive I think Big Ced is one of the most honest, passionate and sincere people in the music industry. It’s rare that I come across people who I genuinely admire and respect but he’s one of them. In a world full of hate, he shows nothing but love.
